We analyze the challenges in adopting the rank-rank model of intergenerational mobility for policy evaluation. For rank-based analysis of intergenerational mobility, it is standard to calculate cohort-specific ranks from the national distribution, but separately for children's and parents'...

This paper analyzes the interactions among lifetime, intergenerational mobility and economic development in overlapping generations framework. In addition, we explain the mechanism that causes two motions of intergenerational mobility, monotonous motion and cyclical motion, which are observed in...

This paper analyzes the interactions among population dynamics with differential fertility, intergenerational mobility, income inequality and economic development in an overlapping generations framework. Population dynamics with differential fertility between the educated and the uneducated has...

Do standardized test scores in a community indicate whether schools there are effective at producing human capital? Counties with high average test scores produce high-earning adults. But, using data from North Carolina, we find that counties' effects on test scores are either uncorrelated (for...

This paper analyzes the effects of population dynamics with differential fertility between the educated and the uneducated on intergenerational mobility, income inequality and economic development in an overlapping generations framework. Population dynamics has two effects on the economy: the...

This paper analyzes the effects of endogenous lifetime on the relationship between intergenerational mobility and economic development in an overlapping generations framework. We assume that an individual’s lifetime depends on health status, which improves with economic development. Increase...
